The minutes from the last meeting, September 27, 1994 were

by Mr. Ness. Unanimous voice vote. Motion carried.
IV. BAYSIDE FIRE STATION REMODEL APPROVAL OF PRELIMINARY DRAWINGS
The meeting was turned over to Robin Heinrichs to present the
drawings. Mr. Heinrichs stated the Fire Department received a
grant for the purpose of constructing a training room to be added
onto the existing facility. The plans were prepared in conjunction
with the service district fire board and volunteers at the Bayside
Fire Department. Mr. Hobgood explained that these plans have not
yet been voted on. There was also question as to the necessity of
the Assembly needing to approve the drawings twice as with other
Borough projects. He was not sure who was going to administer this
project as he had not been directed by the Mayor to do so.
One interior Bearing wall present is in line with the beam. Mr.
Burt stated he thought the beam would do the bearing. Mr. Heinrichs
explained the beams do the bearing except in that one location. On
page 5 the beam line ends and becomes a bearing wall. The sheer
panels were questioned by Mr. Burt and it was explained that it is
a fairly open structure and with wind on the ends the sheer panels
provide internal stiffening. Also for cosmetic purposes its nice
to have the plywood behind the sheetrock.
It was decided to go page by page and make comments as necessary.
There was a question by Mr. Koning as to why isn't there a spec
book? Mr. Hobgood again explained this has not been assigned to
the Engineering department as a project. He asked if anyone had
talked to the Mayor as to how it was going to be administered and
who was going to be the project manager. Mr. Heinrichs stated
those details had not been worked out, that they wanted to get it
through the Architectural Review Board for documentation. He
showed concern that most of the grant should be spent on
construction and not on administration or design. Mr. Heinrichs
stated that he has the spec book from the fire department building
and if it was a matter of concern he could use parts of that if
they felt it necessary. Mr. Ness stated if the plan was to build
this with volunteers, then these are probably acceptable; but if
the plans had to go out for bid then they should have specs for
those portions.
Mr. Koning asked Mr. Hobgood if he could find out from the Mayor
how he was planning on administering this project.
Sheet 1- Mr. Bonney stated there was nothing on the slab and that
it should be referenced. Also nothing is said about contraction
joints. Where does the roof drain? The intent is to run roof water
to daylight. Mr. Ness stated the live load is for residential but
the building is not residential so it needs to be deleted. The type
of construction is 5 but then referred to sprinkler, yet there were
no sprinklers. Mr. Heinrichs stated the original building is
intended to sprinkle but it will not be at this time. The
sprinkler can be asked for as a alternative bid so the building can
be prepared at this time so you know how much it will cost. Mr.
Heinrichs explained the routing has been gone over with Grinnell.
Mr. Ness stated that it needs to be documented.
Sheet 3- Subject to the contractor's interpretation, installation
methods are also in question. The portion of the spec books that
are applicable need to be listed.
Sheet 5- Roofing detail is hard to find. They're shown on pg. 5
but they need to be identified on 3 and 4. On detail 5E where the
sidewalls meet the roof it was suggested to put existing siding.
Mr. Ness suggested to put the fire extinguisher on the legend.
Sheet 6- Detail 6Band 6C -Heat loss -no thermal break between edge of
slab and outside footing. Mr. Ness suggested you can put your
insulation on the outside and bring your sheeting on the top of
that, or you provide a thermal break between the edge of your slab
and your foundation. Mr. Heinrichs stated he hasn't seen the ones
on the outside hold up very well. Mr. Ness explained you could
take a metal flashing and bring it down below grade.Mr. Ness
questioned the notch called the 2x6 blockout on the east and west
ends and Mr. Heinrichs explained they have 6 framing in the walls
and they have 8 stem wall to avoid bump inside they made it up
there. The front page is very generic and it needs to agree with
other pages. Question on detail 6D footing was are you going to
pour the slab on top of the footing or are you going to bring the
u footing up to the grade with the slab? Mr. Heinrichs explained it
is a thickened slab. Mr. Ness stated the drawing shows the footing
stops at the level of the insulation and slab gets poured on top of
footing. He questioned if you wanted to bring the footing all the
way up so that its grade. He mentioned it doesn't show that its a
thickened slab. Mr. Heinrichs explained its much wider than the
wall. Mr. Bonney suggested that if this goes to bid you need to
specify adding sand.
Sheet 7- Mr. Ness questioned some of the wall frames that they will
be nailed 3 on center and other sections say they will be nailed
4 on center. Mr. Heinrichs explained one set of walls was shorter
than the other so it required a tighter nailing pattern. Mr. Ness
also stated there was an inconsistency of details; not mentioning
nuts at the end of bolts.
Sheet 8 -E- Sheer panel -Mr. Ness questioned there was no
specification for any edge nailing. Mr Heinrichs explained they had
different stress' on them but he would check if it was an omission.
Mr. Bonney stated you should be able to follow from the roof all
the way to the foundation with sheer nailing, you need to get it
from the diaphragm into the sheer wall. Mr. Heinrichs asked if he
should show a sheer path.
Sheet 11- Need to spec more detail on exit signs.
Sheet 12- Mr. Ness suggested using lockable cabinets for your
storage.
Sheet 13- Mr. Koning suggested specifying the number of coats of
paint. Mr. Ness suggested that the blank best cores being supplied
by the school district be listed.
Sheet E1- Thermostat not listed on ledger. Many items on ledger are
not used in drawing.
Mr. Bonney moved the ARB approve the preliminary drawings with the
recommendations noted and the resolution as to how this project
will be administered. Mr. Cloudy seconded.
Unanimous voice vote. Motion Passed.
VI. ADJOURNMENT
